  1. I'm with kidney ; a wedge is when both wheels are compressed between two objects eg a small gap. A wodge is what has been described above ?
  2. Fit for the scrap bin, I definitely wouldn't run it with some zip ties taking your braking force !
  3. Running my rear at 20 psi on an echo tr rim and it's badass
  4. New ride , fair few changes to be made before it's dialled
  5. Thanks for the comments guys much appreciated . Beginning of the end refers to new bike
  6. Vimeo Video -> Original Video New video from me
  7. 6 al 4v to bolts , 7075 for everything else Cheers guys! Just need to find a new front rim and I'll be sorted
  8. Machining the axle Axle assembly Grooving hub shell Finished product
  9. I'd go with the echo I think, agree with drstix
  10. Similar to thread lock. Ptfe should work fine, if not you can buy hydraulic sealant but if it got to that stage is probably scrap the body. Is the seat that the bleed screw locks against intact? Edit: that's a race line d, so seals on the blackface of the Allen bolt. A dowty washer would be best , or a small copper washer . Check the sealing faces for scratches.
  11. My interpretation of it is: roughly, +80 on a mod feels near to +70 on a 24 And +55 on a stock. So if you're used to a +60 mod then a +45 stock would be the most similar in my eyes
  12. 5 10 I think more people need to think about trials bikes actually fitting your size not just what everyone else runs. Eg pretty much every modern bike runs a 150 30 stem..... 6 6" downwards, 20-26". There's no way this can be the ideal for everyone ?! Just think about the difference in cockpit length on a mountain bike between small and large .
  13. I'm riding a limey 4, got a 127x27 on there now. Feels far better than my 150x30
  14. To remove piston: Undo lever pivot bolt. Pull out blade assy Undo shroud nut. Use a 1.5mm Allen key to gently push the piston out from the lever bore. To replace tpa etc: Wind on the tpa fully Pry the red tap knob off with a flat bladed screwdriver . Remove lever pivot bolt, and lever blade. Push out lever bushing with an Allen key or similar . Pull out the tpa plate.
  15. Bread cakes will do the trick lad
  16. I would not punch the bearing out at all, I ended up making my own tool because of this. Chances are you will be able to clean it well enough without a full strip down
  17. Weathers looking bad towards the end of the week fingers crossed

    top caps

    As long as it doesnt have a stupid amount or material machined out of it and is/isnt sloped depending on what you need and not 1.5" pretty much anything would do.
  19. I'm the same as prawn , when it's something I'm Struggling with ill go death grip
  20. Video would help? Use the pinch for gaps , and take off farther away from the see the higher the up is. Only advice that helps me
  21. Superstar pads with a roundagon rotor were best for me, only changed because I snapped so many calipers
  22. Has anyone got a fecked saint lever I could take a look at? I work at a hydraulics place is all
